Check-in was a bit stressful at first, but the on-duty manager handled everything with great empathy and professionalism. After a calm conversation, the issue was resolved smoothly—and they even surprised me with afternoon tea, evening entertainment, and a bottle of wine. The next day’s airport transfer was excellent too; driver Andy was friendly, courteous, and helped carry my luggage without being asked. We had a pleasant chat throughout the ride. A few suggestions for improvement: the afternoon tea selection was limited, and the fruit—especially the watermelon—wasn’t very fresh. Dinner options were also quite narrow. The room stayed chilly despite running the heater all night—temperature barely reached 15°C, so adding a heating option would be helpful. Also, breakfast was missing some items, and they weren’t replenished promptly. That said, the overall experience was still positive. The staff responded quickly to feedback, and the views from the room were stunning—especially sunrise in the morning. One small disappointment: no capsule or instant coffee available, which is common even in budget hotels. Adding that would make the stay much more convenient for guests who rely on coffee.

My stay at Swiss Grand Xiamen was truly exceptional. The room service stood out—especially the dedication and attentiveness of Ms. Geng Hongyan, the guest services supervisor. She went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and well-being, making us feel genuinely valued. The only minor concern was the deposit requirement: a RMB 1,000 refundable deposit was requested by the hotel, which is higher than the room rate itself, plus an additional payment through the booking platform. While this did feel a bit steep upfront, it’s worth noting that the overall experience far outweighs this small inconvenience. From the elegant rooms and thoughtful amenities to the professional yet warm staff, every detail reflects high standards. If you’re looking for a luxurious and personalized stay in Xiamen, this hotel delivers. I’d absolutely return and recommend it without hesitation.

Staying at Xiamen Lujiang Harbourview Hotel felt like stepping into a timeless classic—just as iconic as Shanghai’s Peace Hotel. We arrived late and had plenty of parcels delivered to the hotel, but the staff went above and beyond with genuine warmth and care. The room was incredibly comfortable, the breakfast delicious, and even the tissues had a subtle sweet scent—a small detail that made a big difference. Sitting on the balcony overlooking Gulangyu Island’s sea views was pure relaxation. The memory foam pillow was perfect for a restful night’s sleep. The front desk staff, especially Miss Hong Anqi, was incredibly kind and friendly—so sweet, I asked for an empty card as a keepsake, and she personally picked out the latest one for me. The housekeeping team also responded quickly whenever needed. This is more than just a place to stay—it’s a memorable experience. I’ll definitely come back every time I visit Xiamen. Truly exceptional hospitality and attention to detail.

Following the photos provided by the staff made finding the hotel super easy—right across from San Yi Tang, so it’s very easy to spot. What stood out most was the luggage transfer service; traveling with an elderly person and a child, I can’t imagine managing without it. Navigating around Gulangyu is notoriously tricky, but the visual guidance really saved the day. The breakfast was thoughtfully prepared and incredibly delicious, and the afternoon tea set was a delightful bonus. Sipping tea in the second-floor garden felt like a peaceful retreat—perfect for unwinding and even saving money on coffee. Overall, this stay was exceptional from start to finish. The hospitality, attention to detail, and serene atmosphere make it a must-visit. Highly recommended!

Staying at this hotel was a delightful surprise for the price. From the moment I booked, I received a helpful travel guide and timely reminders about purchasing ferry tickets—perfect for someone like me who tends to procrastinate. The customer service was prompt, accurate, and genuinely attentive.

That kind of thoughtful care is rare and deeply appreciated. The luggage transfer service was incredibly convenient too; the staff member happily carried my heavy bags without hesitation. I stayed in the attic room, which came with a spacious bathtub—ideal after a full day of city walking. Just soaking in it felt like a full reset. The private courtyard and rooftop terrace are stunning—each corner feels like a little escape. Simply sitting there, enjoying the breeze and views, was pure relaxation. This place truly delivers comfort, charm, and exceptional hospitality.

My stay at Xiamen Marriott Hotel Haicang was truly exceptional, and I must give a big shoutout to Rachel at the front desk and Tom from the concierge team.

Staying at Yuhai Anshu near Gulangyu's Sunlight Rock was an absolute delight.

The front desk staff were incredibly warm and genuinely helpful, even offering to carry luggage up the stairs—a small but thoughtful gesture that made a big difference. What truly touched me was when the host found out it was my birthday—they surprised me with two boxes of pineapple cakes, which felt so personal and heartfelt. I’d spent weeks comparing options before choosing this place for my birthday getaway, and it turned out to be the perfect choice.

The room was spotless and incredibly well-maintained, with a smart toilet in the bathroom and a clever dry-wet separation layout for shower and toilet—so practical! There’s also a tiny private courtyard perfect for relaxing with a cup of tea. Just remember to close the screen door at night; otherwise, little mosquitoes are drawn to the light and sneak right in. The dog, named Shisan (which instantly reminded me of Liu Shisan from *Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs*), is adorable and super friendly—always wagging his tail and eager to say hello. The staff went above and beyond: they called and messaged us early to confirm if we needed help checking in ahead of schedule. And the free breakfast? Absolutely heartwarming—a steaming bowl of porridge that warmed me from the inside out. It’s exactly the kind of detail that makes a stay feel personal and special. I’ll definitely be back next time I visit Gulangyu. This place isn’t just a hotel—it feels like coming home.

Stepping into the courtyard, sunlight filtered through the trees, painting golden patterns on the stone path. A young man in crisp attire was quietly trimming dead branches with focused precision—his movements deliberate yet gentle. When he turned toward me, his bright eyes and warm smile lit up his face like a mountain stream. 'Welcome! Hope you had a good journey,' he said, voice full of energy, carrying the fresh spirit of early morning air. This military-themed boutique stay felt less like a nostalgic museum and more like a vibrant home built by passion. The space is open and airy, immaculately clean—not sterile or cold, but alive with intention. White walls gleam, handrails shine like training equipment, even the potted hydrangeas have leaves so vividly green they look freshly washed. You can feel it: this order comes from someone who lives by high standards, guarding every detail with quiet dedication. Inside, the room continues the theme of clarity and comfort. The small balcony is pure magic—a pair of canvas chairs and a little wooden table, just enough to sit back and watch clouds drift by, listen to wind whispering through the trees, or simply breathe. The 2-meter-wide bed is solid and cozy, perfectly balanced between rugged style and softness. And the standout feature? That standalone white bathtub by the window. After a long day, sinking into warm water with a hint of pine fragrance—it’s instant peace. At night, lying on the balcony under an endless sky, the stars are so close you swear you can hear the universe breathing. Location-wise, it’s surprisingly convenient—major sights feel just around the corner, yet the moment you step back into the courtyard, everything slows down. It’s the perfect base for both adventure and retreat. Later that evening, I saw him sweeping fallen leaves again, carefully gathering them near the tree roots. In that quiet moment, something clicked: this beauty isn’t about history or nostalgia. It’s not preserved—it’s created. By a young soul fully present, pouring love into every corner. Staying here wasn’t just about resting—it was about feeling inspired, recharged, reminded that life can be both grounded and full of light. It’s not just a place to sleep; it’s a living poem about purpose, energy, and joy.
